Publication trends in human learning and memory: 1962-1982

Abstract: The relative fates of human learning and memory as research topics in psychology were assessed by an analysis of titles published from 1962 to 1982. Publications were classified as "learning" or "memory" on the basis of titular descriptions provided by authors of the respective publications. Results indicated that, whereas researchers in 1962 were predominantly concerned with learning, rather than memory, a significant reversal occurred over the ensuing 10 years (p < .001). The subsequent 10 years, however, ma… Show more

“…Prior to the advent of the PETER Program, concerted efforts at research on the differential effects of practice on test characteristics had not appeared with any regularity in the recent literature (37,59,62). Yet it is only with such a paradigm that subtle changes in performance can be most efficiently detected (110).…”

“…En efecto, nos hallamos, desde la emergencia del cognitivismo, ante una auténtica legión de publicaciones (Forrester, 1984) que sólo en parte son coincidentes en cuanto al carácter de paradigma que pudiera o no tener (Briskman, 1972;De Mey, 1982;Zacaggnini y Delclaux, 1982;Caparrós y Gabucio, 1984;Mayor, 19841)) -en cuyo debate aquí no entraremos-, y es cierto que existen muchas cuestiones pendientes que plantean serias lagunas sobre cómo la psicología cognitiva trata de reconstruir mediante modelos verificables todos aquellos procesos mediante los cuales el input sensorial es transformado en información, reducido, elaborado, almacenado, recuperado y utilizado. Dada la asimilación afirmada por varios autores entre psicología experimental y psicología cognitiva (Massaro, 1975;Wickelgren, 1979) y a la que anteriormente nos hemos referido, la primera ya no participa de las características de objetivismo metodológico de un conductismo carente de contenido definido, sino que a través de la elaboración de modelos verificables y de simuladores, con nuevas técnicas como leit motive, nos presenta unas sendas altamente sugerentes de momento, que han actuado -y aún actúan-como una especie de marca de calidad con suspense del enfoque y/o paradigma del procesamiento de la información.…”
